Prediction:
Germany 3 have proved too be tricky opposition for alot of teams, they were the last team to enter the tournament and made the group tables balanced (5 in each group). They entered more for fun then anything, but as the stages went, they obviously become more eager to get furthur and now they are at the final! Sweden 2 didnt really have much choice about the players they could choose as Farac explained in his interview earlier in the tournament - The majority of the better players went to the Sweden 1 team, however they seemed to have got some nice teamwork together and as the poll suggests are favourites to win the 2nd bracket!
Possible Lineups:
Sweden 2: Farac, Ligisten, casper, donnie, Perrin, Maber
Germany 3: -=Katsch=-, AsukA, bitch, warGod, lzR, Beurer.
Key Players: Sweden have already said they dont have key players, and looking at their matches in-game they probably dont, but outside Farac is the key player keeping things together for the match and keeping his team organised.
For Germany im not sure who the key players are anymore , i guess its those people who played the most matches together, they will have good teamwork.
Map Selection: Germany are playing Defensive and it looks like Sweden are going to be flying today:
Maps for team swe2|: Ballistic Bridge Desolate][ GolgothaAL Riverbed]l[AL Rook Submarinebase][
Maps for team eFreu*: Asthenosphere AutoRIP DesertStorm Frigate Guardia RiverbedAL Siege][
I think draws will be important today, especially for Germany 3, and it looks lke they are playing for some draws.
Server: I think the server will be extremely crucial in this match, they are playing on Sweden server for the 1st leg, The server has been a disaster so far in this tournament, many teams complained about the server, lets hope there is no complaints today. The match could well be settled tonight. (but lets hope its not)
Germany Really do have to come out of this match a maximum of 4 maps down, i cant see them pulling back in the next leg if they go down by anymore maps. Sweden will try to finish off the game tonight imo, their map selection is very tactical but very offensive.
Im pretty confident predicting that Sweden 2 will win tonight, what i am unsure of is how prepared Germany 3 will be. This could easily end up to be 7-0 to Sweden 2 imo, but i hope Germany have been practising like mad and can cut out the number of map wins for Sweden 2. If they do it will be an interesting 2nd leg!
I just think Sweden 2 has the frag power and the teamplay atm, and i dont think Germany will be prepared enough so my prediction is:
7-2 to Sweden 2
GL to both teams!
